4 Simple Ways to Avoid GMOs

What are GMO's? Simply put, they are genetically altered seeds that have found their way into the food supply. Our bodies do not recognize them and therefore, they can prove to be very harmful to our health. Studies have been done in the UK which have proven them to cause cancerous tumors and other diseases. They have been banned for use in European countries.

1.) Buy organic, (organic producers are not allowed to use GMOs. )

2.) Look for "Non GMO" labels. GMO foods are not required to be listed on packages, but many companies that do not use them will gladly put them on the package.

3.) Avoid risky ingredients: corn, soy, vegetable oil (canola, cottonseed, and soybean oil,) and sugar from sugar beets.

4.) Buy products listed in the Non-GMO Shopping Guide.
